No, it is a new design inspired by the Cessna. It is a STOL whose design was originally motivated by missionary groups who wanted an aircraft able to get in and out of anywhere
wow, I have to admit I had to look up on the web... bad me !
this was difficult, as it is a civilian aircraft, hopefully you let the PT6 visible !
Very nice aircraft ! and the power to weight ratio is crazy, thanks to the PT6, similar to the Pilatus who can dive with the parachutist, always impressive !
I think Aaron could be right. But of course, I could never say, or write, that name, could I?!!
Oh dear, I need to go and lie down, I've come over all feint ....
HOLY POOP KNOCKERS!!!! You mean I got that one. WOW! I amaze myself sometimes. Course,....that was pure luck. Ok, let's see about this one. And Terry, this is not a Hippocrockafrog.
Sorry dude...I was looking at the chequered paintwork on the cowling and remembered that souped up T6 you'd taken pics of a while ago !. Round engine and a custom paint job, i was sure I knew plane and got it pinned !
It's late...well, it is here anyway !....so here's an easy (ish) one for you. I'm sure you guy's will get it straight away
That was my initial thought, but the perspective seems as though the gun is a little closer to the engine than the front of a B-25. I think it's an Invader maybe? Because it does at first glance seem to be a nose-wheel aircraft, and I'm pretty sure I can see it in the prop hub, but it's pretty distorted. I thought it was a B-29 at first, but a) it has four props and b ) the cowling is too round. Though that may be cheating!
